American Restaurant Question (Foreigner learn English)?

I went to a restaurant at the noon. And I saw "double play" and "single play" burger. I asked the difference between them. The cashier told me that single play is <<<< two petal>>>>>>. I could understand that meant 2 pieces of meats. I came back to office to check the meaning of <<petal>>, but the meaning did not meet what I expected. Could anyone please help.

Moreover, could anyone provide a few types of cheese that is usually available in fast food restaurant? I only know pepperjack and american cheese

I you sure it was PETAL and not PATTY?

Usually fast food restaurants have only one kind of cheese, a cheese product made of cheese and oil called cheese food or "pasteurized process cheese food" it is legal for restaurants to call this cheese.

Sometimes there is a milder form of it they call swiss, but it’s usually not real swiss cheese, either.

    Not "petals" but "patties". A patty is a small round disk-like object.

    Don’t worry about specifying a cheese. in fast food restaurants, all the cheese is "process imitation cheese food product," not real cheese, and it all tastes the same.

    PETAL?? I doesnt really make sense.. I agree maybe it was PATTY=meaning two pieces of meat..

    As for cheese: Cheddar mostly and Swiss.
